I'm currently the extras coordinator on Power
Rangers but have worked with Kam Talent on many film jobs since the
finale of Xena, including Sione's Wedding. The agency has always
had a fresh supply of new faces and multicultural talent, there
have been some real gems! The staff are always friendly and willing
to go the extra mile to make sure the production doesn't get let
down on the day, taking emergency last minute bookings and dealing
with early morning calls to make our extras are there. The agency
has no problem with coordinating large numbers of people for crowd
scenes and also at finding just the right person for a featured
role."
Bailey Wilson [ with a bit of help from his
mum Helena ] - 7 yr old talent
Bailey was picked by sky city and ..." After
that day of filming Bailey has been asking me "when will my next
audition be"? He has really gained the confidence to further
himself in this industry just from this one and only stint. It goes
to show that KAM and the film crew have looked after him 100% and
made this an enjoyable experience for him.
Thank you to all involved in giving my son the
confidence to go further. I completely put all my trust into KAM in
helping me secure a future in the industry for Bailey."
"I have been in the same industry now for 13
years. I really love my full time job but also love time out to try
other things. I registered with Kam Talent about 1 year ago and
have already been given opportunities I thought I would never
have.
The first day I registered I was given the
chance to be an extra on a movie. From there I have taken up every
audition or part I could have just to get me out of my normal daily
routine, Its not even a question of money, that's just an added
bonus, minimal hours and great pay. I cherish my time doing this,
diversty of roles and the chance to meet others who are in a
similar situation.
I would recommend this for anyone. I was
really worried about not looking like a size 8 model but you soon
learn it's got nothing to do with that.
Every company is looking for a particular look
or culture to fit their product, that's the best thing."
"I just want to thank you for casing me as an
extra in "Madigans
Fantasia"! It was a very enjoyable experience."
"Thanks soooo much for your help today, I
don't know what we would have done with out you!"
Cheers!
"thank you for all your help and support and
being very understanding to constant changes and early phone
calls!"
"I Joined Kam Talent a year ago as I wanted to
try new things and just get out and learn and have fun, It wasn't
about the money it was about learning and developing in new
things.
Since joining Kam I have been an extra on the
power rangers movie, bird flu movie that was produced for America
On both movie sets I got play leading roles right in front of the
camera it was so much fun, and really interesting to learn how the
whole movie world works.
Another great job I got was working at a
charity fundraiser, we didn't even know what we were going to be
doing until we arrived on the night. It was the most fun I have had
so far, we were asked to play the roles of the Paparazzi and we had
props and cameras and Dictaphones and everything, the object was to
pounce on all the guests as they entered through the gates to the
event and then we bombarded them with questions just like the
media,it was so funny to see peoples reactions to all the lights
and cameras they truly believed we were real media it was a really
fun night.
I have also steady stream of interviews for TV
ads as well, I would recommend this work for anyone its
interesting, fun, and you are constantly learning new things."
